Nintendo 64 Emulator: Daedalus - Image 1When StrmnNrmn said yesterday that he's finally recharged his batteries, he wasn't kidding. This guy's really starting to get busy with the updates already, such as one we have now. And like yesterday, blackrave's tipped us off again (another million thanks, bud!) about StrmnNrmn's new blog post.

Now this isn't entirely new since this concerns something which has been implemented since Daedalus R7. But what makes it relevant to us - to you - now is that a lot of people have been asking StrmnNrmn about incorporating a Custom Controller Config option in future releases.

So, to address the homebrew community, we flashback to R7 as StrmnNrmn discusses the how-to, why-to, and what-to of Custom Controller Configurations in Daedalus R7 onwards.

The actual control mapping is quite simple, but if you want to go more advanced with the settings, then it gets complicated. We'll have to direct you over to StrmnNrmn's blog for his full how-to though, hence the Read link below.

Now with regards to control mapping, there is a little caveat. StrmnNrmn posts: "No single controller mapping scheme can be provided which works well across all games, but using custom controller configs it should be possible to create a mapping which works well for any given game."

So have fun with it. Experiment! If you have any further questions, you can ask StrmnNrmn directly via posting a comment in his blog (again, see Read link below). Now, if you want to go the extra mile, you can even send him suggestions of some good controller scheme that you might have set up for a certain game! Just email him your mapping scheme and he'll look into adding it in future versions for distribution!

Get your map out, here comes the Read link!

Please read this, you will be excited. When you click this link, http://xrl.us/ezymoney you will go to a website that will show you how to sign up for another website that pays you 2 - 45$ (PER) to do surveys, sign up for trial offers, and test products. Companies such as ebay pay CC to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, CC simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate, I have made 472$ in May, 412$ in June, and 271$ (SO FAR) in July. You get paid in real checks from "KNGSIDE MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true, but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day) You do not have to enter your credit card or social security number. Nothing Harmful can come from CC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE 18 OR OLDER, I AM 15 YEARS OLD AND REFERRING PEOPLE, AND I MAKE THIS MUCH MONEY A MONTH JUST SPENDING A COUPLE MINUTES A DAY ON THE COMPUTER! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS. Think it's a scam? Read this(from the website) "We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so. Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!" There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free offers! [NO AGE REQUIREMENT, NO CREDIT CARD, NO DETAILED INFORMATION, AND YOU DONT HAVE TO GIVE A SINGLE PENNY!] VISIT HERE FOR MORE INFO, MORE PICX OF CHEQUES, TIPS AND GUIDE FOR EASY CASH! http://xrl.us/ezymoney AND FOR A QUICK PROOF OF PAYMENT.... http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/078f947140.jpg

QJ, find some real news to post _please_.



And idiot readers, stop jumping this news post. Just because it has Daedalus in the title, does not make it news.

I was starting to get sick of the L button being mapped to the N64's L button, when it should've been mapped to the more often used Z button!
